Howdy from me Kody now the desert cowboy, well not sure what that means, but guess I will say OK....I am a cowboy living in the desert.

So Mom was checking her mail on her phone yesterday and saw that I was a DDP, we couldn't get on because Mom and Dad were cleaning, it sure made all of us tired...watching is very tiring for us kitties. We all took a nap!

I want to thank the diary lady for choosing me or who ever does the choosing & to my friends who commented. I am honored and happy to have been chosen along with so many of our friends yesterday, ConCats to them from all of us.

So to let you know what is going on I have to say not much, too hot for us to be out in our enclosure, too hot to do much most of the day, yeah we have a cool house but we mostly play in the morning and then at night. When Mom goes to bed me and Tu Two play with each other for a short time, then I get on Moms bed to sleep with her and Zeke. I still like to go out into the garage to take my after morning meal and evening meal nap. I am out there all alone, I stretch out on the cool concrete and sleep, what a good sleep too.

I have learned where Mom keeps our bag of catnip, every morning I go into the laundry room on the counter meooow for the catnip, she sticks some of our toys in it over night and WOW does it smell so good, she also will sprinkle some on our scratching cardboard and trees, we have so much fun getting high on the nip...I have to tell you I rip all of the catnip toys Mom gets for us, she tells me I am her first cat that rips up my toys and make a mess, I tell her isn't that what they are for, us to have fun, of course I guess because I am a big boy I get carried away and it doesn't take much for me to rip them up. I have even torn or pulled my pole toys a part...

Well that is about it from here in the desert of Arizona, we are waiting for a big storm to come, we sure need some rain..Gotta go! hugs to you all

Howdy friends from me Kody one of the new desert Kitties we sure hope you are all doing well and we will soon have more & more of our friends returning.

Well now I guess it is time for me to tell you what I have been up to, I have discovered the garage, yep the garage! I love going out the first thing in the morning to check it out and see if I can find any bugs, sometimes I do and then I don't...this is even before I have my breakfast. Mom leaves the door ajar with the light on so she will remember I am out there, I usually meow at the door wanting back in. Soon after breakfast some mornings I ask to go back out in the garage. Mom has put pieces of a rug and some old runners out there for me, I love to take my morning nap out there. Then after I eat dinner I love to go back out to take my after dinner nap. Once Mom & Dad are finished with dinner Mom brings me in for the night. Mom keeps telling me she is going to move me out there because I just love being out there so much, but she hasn't guess it is too hot out there and it can be dangerous if they forget I am out there. Once Dad opened the big door and I made a dash to go out, Mom got me really fast. So no she isn't going to move me out there.

Finally Mom put our enclosure back together took her like forever to do it and it was in the heat...poor Mom we watched from inside! So now me and Zeke like to go out in the mornings if I am not in the garage. Mom says soon it will cool off so we can be out there longer, she worries because it gets so very hot here. It is on the patio near the door so Mom & Dad can see us and watch over us, and the patio is covered so it doesn't get wet or too much sun.

I like to seat on my cat tree and watch the big hawks soaring over our yard and beyond, they sure are big so big they look like a plane to me. I am always watching for my lizard friends, don't always see them, but I have to tell you we have watched them get bigger, oh how they can run across our brick wall across the back of our yard.

Oh I have to tell you Mom and Dad got a new bed one that goes up and goes down...I jumped up on the bed before Mom could put the bedding on and I jumped in the air because it was not the same bed & Mom was making it go up.. we can go under the bed before we couldn't, they had to get rid of their pedestal bed with drawers...I haven't been on the bed much I am still not sure about this bed going up and down, not that it goes up and down much.

We love our new house now that all settled and I am doing well, Mom has me on natural remedy for my blockage to help me not get sick again. So far so good.

Well my friends that is about it, we are just happy Catster is getting fixed and we all have to make sure we are patient we know it will be great once they get it all fixed....we think it will be better.

OK I am off need to see if Mom will let me out in the garage gotta check for bugs before dinner!

OMC we are so happy cause we can now change out our backgrounds, no more holiday pages...boy are we glad. But now Mom has to remember how to do everything and try to do it on her new lap top...we just did our pages with our last years honor for our Tallulah...well I didn't really get to know her, but I know she sent Mom into that store and showed me to her. Now I have the bestest home and Mom....

Thank you HQ for working on Catster so we can be with our friends again.

We sure hope our friends will start coming back now especially since there are new owners and they have all worked so very hard to get our beloved Catster back up and running and for caring enough.

Well that is it for now, we are so excited to be back...more to come because we have so much to tell you all about living in Arizona now...

OMC I am being honored again guess HQ likes me, well I am likeable after all. But honestly I am very honored and happy as well. Thank you for picking me as one of the DDP'S.

Mom can't use her lap top for now dad is transferring all of her precious things from her old lap top to her new as we are typing this on her phone. We might say it just isn't the same so please forgive us if we have mistakes darn phone. Now Mom has to figure out how to do everything everything all over sure hope she can learn and most importantly everything transfer. Luckily she put her important items on her external hard druve. But we still worry.
I have to tell you Mom & Dad slept in past our breakfast time so I decided to wake them up you all know what I did yep I jump on them and demanded Mom get up and feed me. IT WORKED!!!

So my tummy is full and I am content, this k it is time to ask mom to let me in the garage, but first I need to thank all for helping me celebrate.
And Finally Mom got new glasses so she was having eye & headaches last week so we couldn't visit catster land. Mom says we will catch up soon.

Time to go too hard to do this on the phone we will be back cause we love you all and catster land.

MOL all in one week I have been DDP and then my birthday! well we didn't miss them, we saw them on our email notices, but Mom didn't want to come here not because she didn't want me to thank my friends for my gifts and comments, but as we all know just too many problems getting on and being able to do things here in our beloved catsterland . So we have been taking a break.

Now that we have said that I personally want to say thank you to all my friends that managed to get on catsterland to give me wonderpurr gifts, love and comments...you are all the best and I love you all.

Now that I am 2 Mom says I am a big boy, you got that right I am big. I am big enough to try to jump the brick wall, Mom had me outside so I could explore she was right there with me and I just took a leap onto the top of the wall before she could react. Mom panicked and was able to get me before I figured I could jump down into our neighbors yard. I wanted to explore and see what was on the other side of our brick wall. Mom grabbed me and in the house I went. Now I can't be out, If I go out it is on the leash and no where near the wall.

I love getting to explore and I don't understand why I can't go explore, Mom has said something about wild animals out there, I sure haven't seen any just birds and lizards.

I love going out into the garage now even if it is hot out there, I walk around and then I lay on the concrete roll a little, then I take naps. Of course I don't get to stay out there for long Mom worries about me getting too hot so she comes and brings me in. She doesn't mind that I go out there she wants to keep my stress free and if this a way for me to be calm and sleep good then she is fine with me being in the garage. She calls me her garage kitty...

I love getting to sleep on Moms bed with Tu Two, sometimes Zeke, also sleeping on my cat tree next to my window, so if something is happening out in the yard I will be right there to see.

My birthday well it was just another day for me, Mom has given us so many new toys and catnip she said that we didn't need anymore for now. I did get to have a little fishy for dinner last night it was on top of my special diet, she said I have been such a good boy that it will be OK just to have a small amount of yummy fish for my bithday, I also got to have some tuna flakes.

Besides getting lots of hugs and kisses for my birthday it was a normal day around here.

Thank you all for remembering me and taking the time to wish me a happy birthday what wonderpurr friends you are...and one even thinks I have grown into a handsome kitty...now I blush!!!!

MOL today is my 2nd birthday, we can't believe I am 2 now, where did the time go. So much has happened in my 2 yrs, the best is my Mom adopting me and giving me my home.

Today I woke Mom up Mom, Mom it is my birthday today, let's get up so I can get my gift and my breakfast. But first things first let me out into the garage. You see now I love going into our new garage I explore, sniff the car tires to see where Mom and Dad have been, then I lay on the piece of carpet they have on the floor I clean myself and I fall asleep. Mom doesn't let me stay in there for long because it gets way too hot, I enjoy being in there no matter what. So while Mom was getting my breakfast ready I was exploring and staying out of her way.

Soon she was getting me and giving me my birthday breakfast, nothing special, well yeah special alright, my special diet. Sure wish I could have fish!!!! I did get some tuna flakes

So as the day went I waited and waited for my gift, Mom was busy cleaning our boxes etc...you know what I mean!!! Finally she comes to me and gives me my new pouch filled with organic catnip, boy I have to tell you these are the best smelling catnip! and I also got a new mousie, it is small and hard the kind I love. I played and played having a good ole time. Now I am taking my afternoon nap on Moms bed...she is typing my dictation for me...so I can sleep...

Now I am a big cat, no longer a little kitty boy! I am one happy kitty and I love life.

Mom told me I could have 2 wishes,if I wanted to share my wishes with you all it was OK....my first is too stay healthy no more blockages...sure hope not! and the other one is for Catster to return again like it was or close to what is was so we all can have fun again. So hope my wishes come true!!!!

Now I have to say thank you to you all for my gifts and well wishes, Mom has been trying to thank all my friends, it doesn't go to your pages or it is taking forever...so please forgive us for not thanking each of you personally..

I love you all, you have all made my birthday so special, yes friends are what make our special days so wonderpurr!!!

Now that we have been in our new house for several months I have to say we are settling in; getting used to living here, not scared like we were, I love so many places to hang out, my cat tree (formly Tallulah's) I look out the back watching my lizard grow bigger, birds small and big, butterflies too. Mom and I watch the storms coming too it blows the trees poor trees!
I have discovered a whole new area the garage, I love spendinG time exploring, sniffing, rolling on the concrete And Taking A Nap Only To be awakened by mom telling me time to come in to the cool house.
Yesterday mom got out our pet stroller she put me in & we went out the front that was so Kool a new view from our house.

I am having fun & loving my new home now, I am not stressing out great news. Sleeping on mom's bed in the afternoon and playing what a life being a desert cat.

Hello my friends, thank you for your comments, purrs and prayers for me while I was having trouble with my medication.

I have to tell you that Mom was there with me and didn't sleep much either, she was watching over me to make sure I wasn't going to have any other issues with taking my medication.

So as the morning came and we woke up I was still very tired and so was Mom. I did get up and play, ate my food, but I eyes were still dilated some and I just wanted to be lazy and sleep. Guess what so did Mom! so both of us just hung out in Moms room and we slept.

Today I am doing so much better and I back to myself. I am so happy that is over, never do me or Mom want me to go through that again. Mom is just happy I didn't get any worse during the night and I am a happy boy again enjoying life.

Mom is waiting for the vet to get back to Mom so they can talk about giving Mom medication for me to have on hand just in case I start showing signs of stress or getting blocked. Mom hopes the vet agrees with giving me the medication I had when I came home for the ER....I did fine with it and there were no side affects either.

Again thank you all for being here for me and Mom, Mon felt so bad that she happened to me, she told me that she won't let that happen again unless I have surgery or need to be knocked out for any reason...hope not.

Well Mom has been watching me this evening and she wasn't sure if I was starting to have a problem with getting blocked or not. So she decided to give me my medication she has on hand just in case in hopes it will help me and I won't have to go to the vet.

Well a little while after she gave me my medication Tramadol I was in her room playing with my laser light when I started to feel funny. I went into the other room then to the laundry room where I thought OK I will go to my box.

All of a sudden my pupils dilated and I started meowing loudly sounding weird. Dad was there, Mom heard me and came running to see what was wrong thinking I was having trouble peeing....

I was acting like I was going to throw up but not! Mom came to me looked at me and said my eyes were dilated and I wouldn't move. Finally I moved into the front room and when Mom tried to check me I moved and was facing the wall. Mom told Dad that isn't a good sign.

So Mom hurried and looked up Tramadol for side affects and she thinks I am having side affects from getting this medication....Mom is so mad because she wanted something to help me not make me act weird and funny. She is watching me like a hawk now and is afraid to sleep.

I was getting Prazosin urethral relaxant after my stay at the ER. Mom is going to call my new vet Monday morning and tell her she isn't going to give me this medication again and she wants the Prazosin...I had no problems at all with it.

Mom can't believe this is happening, it scared her and it sure scared me I didn't know what was going on. So now I am just laying on the floor with dilated pupils, when Mom pets me I meow loudly...guess I am telling her you think!!!!!

Mom will just give me my homeopathic medication and not give me drugs, she feels like she OD me with this drug...and she isn't happy with the vet, Mom did ask for the Prazosin but the vet felt this would be better....NOT!!!!

We will let you know how I am doing tomorrow unless Mom is at the ER with me...we can't believe this is happening to me, I was doing so good and had a good day
